30 Lengths Outdoor Pool March 31, 2007

Left work on Friday at five and went straight to the pools. It was raining. Got there to discover that the outside pool was closed but the signage said that it should be open. I enquired at Reception – immediately the Team Leader opened the pool explaining that he was just waiting [...]

Wine Review 2 March 31, 2007

Bach 22 Merlot 05
Thought I’d stray away from my usual red … silly move. I used to like Merlot but this was yukky … hard to swallow.

Five Quirks! March 28, 2007

Delys might add to this …
1. I have worn odd socks for most of my life … my running lunchtime buddies in Welington called me “Odd Socks Morgs”. So the washing line does not have “pairs” Karen!
2. I always have to have a cuppa tea before I do anything in the morning.
3. [...]

Day 4 of Training March 28, 2007

I did 30 lengths, then did 10 minutes treading water. Then this swimmer kept swimming into me when I was in the jogging lane. I asked the lifeguard to get him into the Lane swim area and he said he did not have the authority to do that. I said back to [...]

Revolting March 27, 2007

Rabbits March 22, 2007

Well … this happens every year and I ask the same question and DONT get a satisfactory answer from anyone!
So I will keep asking this question until I do …
WHAT THE HELL DO BUNNY RABBITS HAVE TO DO WITH EASTER?
